    I believe that this lad could go down as the best british fighter of the last 25 yrs. He has the speed and reflexes of herol graham. the power of nigel benn. the combination punching of calzaghe, and the ring craft of lennox Lewis. If and when he beats Mayweather he must surely rank as the best..

    Outlandish **** like this gives decent, honest British fans a bad name.

    i'd be very surprised if khan beat floyd...

    but if he keeps going like he is he will have an argument to be the best british boxer of the last 25 years. :good

    untill he gets knocked out again then everyone says he is a bum again. Khan wont be the brittish goat but he has everything to become a hof boxer, I hope he is able to accomplish this.

    Newbie is a newbie. :patsch

    Who knows how good he can be though? He'll lose a few along the way but he could end up just behind the likes of Lewis, but having had a better career than Ricky Hatton and Naseem Hamed, in all likelyhood.

    Just cos some of us don't have many posts doesn't mean we've just started folowing boxing. :twisted:

    But the thread starter is obviously on angel dust. The power of Nigel Benn oh lol.

    It's clearly a troll guys.

    When all is said and done I think Khan will be almost on a par with Lewis after he retires, maybe level pegging with him, and will be remembered very fondly.

    I slowly place my cursor over the thread to read the first couple of lines.

    ...the reflexes of Herol Graham, the power of....

    Please say he didn't put Nigel Benn, please, please.

    ...the power of Nigel Benn.

    There are people like:

    Froch
    Calzaghe
    Lewis
    Haye
    Hatton
    Benn
    Eubank
    Hamed
    Duke Mckenzie

    - As I'm a fan though if he gets all four belts at 140 lb - catches titles at 147, 154 and maybe 160 if your being really dangerous -
    then maybe best boxer in the last 20 to 30 years.

    - But Froch will give anybody a run for their money in terms of resume/success.

    - For me though it's Calzaghe - his '0' loss record and talent - and good southpaws are always good to watch.
